Movie Recommendation: Dirty War
I watched an excellent BBC/HBO drama last night called 'Dirty War' (Netflix).
London sets the stage for this 21st century thriller about a major terrorist attack. The HBO feature follows both the terrorists as they plan the attack and the police and intelligence forces as they uncover the plot and try to apprehend the terrorists. After a detonation in central London, the story shifts to emergency procedures in the aftermath of a "dirty bomb" explosion.
Sobering.

Despair.com "Greatest Hurts" Collections
Despair.com, creators of 'demotivators,' has its holiday stuff available. How about a mug that says:
Ambition: The Journey of a Thousand Miles Sometimes Ends Very Very Badly
or
Meetings: None of Us Is As Dumb As All of Us
or
Procrastination: Hard Work Pays Off After Time, But Laziness Always Pays Off Now
for your co-workers?

If You Hate Cats.....
If you hate cats as I do, go see this movie (2.2 MB quicktime movie). It's an Air Force movie of a cat being tossed around during zero g. (I'm sure that tomorrow Kerry will accuse Bush of rank incompetence for allowing this sort of thing).
Talking much about oneself can also be a means to conceal oneself. --Friedrich Nietzsche
